but I love to sew and want to make the bedding/curtains for the nursery instead of purchase. But, here's the problem: I need to figure out how much fabric to buy, but don't have a crib yet!! So, how do I know what the drop is between the mattress and the floor? Is it standard at first? Also, what do you do as you move the mattress down as the baby gets older? Just fluff the skirt out?
This is my first baby, so I don't even know the last time I laid eyes on a crib , much less inspected it to see how this mattress thing really works! HELP!!
